"I had been dreaming about owning a pair of Christian Louboutins for much of my adult life. I knew it wasn't a realistic goal given my budget; but those red bottoms were calling out to me! My mom knew my dream—so she bought me a pair for a wedding one year. It was simply the best day of my life. I snuck them in my room when my husband wasn't looking. When he asked me about them, I said, 'Oh these old things? I've had them forever.' But then he saw the red bottoms one night at dinner, and he just about had a heart attack. Even he knew what they meant!"
